Rapid advancement in the development of hyperspectral image analysis techniques has led to specialized hyperspectral missions. It results in the bulk transmission of hyperspectral images from sensors to analysis centers and finally to data centers. Storage of these large size images is a critical issue that is handled by compression techniques. This survey focuses on different hyperspectral image compression algorithms that have been classified into two broad categories based on eight internal and six external parameters. In addition, we identified research challenges and suggested future scope for each technique. The detailed classification used in this paper can categorize other compression algorithms and may help in selecting research objectives.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
